access and tourist information
The swimming pool, games room and play areas are situated a convenient distance away from the cottages.
The heated indoor
swimming pool measures approximately 32' long x 16' wide
x 4' deep throughout. It is open from the Easter holidays
until the end of October (to avoid disturbance to other
guests normal opening hours, subject to pool maintenance,
are 10am to 8pm, or dusk if earlier). In the games room
are a wooden train set, giant Little Tikes dolls house,
and construction activities for younger children. Older
children and adults will enjoy table football, air hockey
and table tennis. A full sized snooker table is available
for adults.
Outside there are climbing frames and swings and a paved area for the trundle toys. We have a 14' trampoline which is always very popular. Plenty of picnic benches are provided near to and further away from the play areas to relax and enjoy eating al fresco. For smaller children we have a large sandpit with 2 tons of sand!! We have a large play "Kidbine" harvester, which reflects the history of Trevorrick as a grain farm under previous owners. The playing field has plenty of space to kick a ball or fly a kite.
Whilst we are not a working farm, we do have some ducks, bantams, turkeys and geese and a rabbit. Helping to feed the ducks is popular with children and adults love them too! Our summer resident pigs prove very popular, and on those long summer nights, "owl" watching has proved a popular pastime, as for the last 3 years we have had a breeding pair of barn owls, which can now be viewed through our "Owlcam" whilst you stay with us.
A separate room with comprehensive tourist information, pay phone and washing machines, tumble drier and sink is also available, and outside is a rotary clothes airer.
In the village of St Issey, there are two pubs (The Ring O'Bells and the Pickwick Inn). The Seafood Restaurant in Padstow of TV fame, run by Rick Stein, has an international reputation. However, it is essential to book well in advance. The closest pub / restaurant is the Pickwick Inn, half a mile along our quiet lane. The Pickwick, which is restaurant quality using locally sourced ingredients where possible, always has glowing reports from our guests, and we are receiving increasing recommendations for the Ring O'Bells, a friendly traditional village inn, following a change of ownership last year.
A tennis court is available for hire (approx £5 per hour) at the Pickwick Inn (0.5 mile from Trrevorrick Farm).
